This RPS Yokomo belongs to my friend Bob Campbell. He is the original owner and that is his standard racing paint job from the day. We were visiting friends at the local RC track and he brought it out to share. We talked about how these cars would shudder as they launched and about a Denver racer Mark Mustard who once launched one into someones lap in the grandstands.
This is what currently remains of this car minus those front one way bearings.

Very cool. Look like it weighs 36 lbs though.

WOW Dead Kennedys stickers on it! That must be a very "rare and vintage" (lol) Punk RPS version
